GNOME
A number of users complained that in 2.18 the keyboard
indicator does not show the short layout names properly
after the GNOME session restart – it shows internal XKB
identifiers instead. Now I know why.
DBUS session envvar avialable to bonobo-activation-server
points to the previous (non-existent) session. The bug is
half year old :///

2.18 is out. Great. Finally, libgnomekbd has all GNOME
keyboard-related libraries consolidated and separately
managed – so supporting
stable series should be easier for me. I just wonder when
libgnomekdb is going to get its own bugzilla entry?
Now, with GSoC about to fire – any students who’d want to
improve keyboard capplet and make it usable?

Freedesktop.org won – they got my hackergotchi installed
first. p.g.o still does not have it.

Ubuntu clams to support OSS nVidia driver. Is anybody
volunteering to provide snapshot debs for feisty? Or at
least some howto similar to this
one for Fedora.

… And I wonder, which of the two: planet.gnome.org or
planet.freedesktop.org would first put my (corresponding)
hackergotchi in place?..
Ubuntu
Upgrade of my laptop to Feisty (Herd 5, of course) passed
rather smoothly. I just wonder – is there any chance they
release PowerPC ISO? Or – is Ubuntu’s PPC support dropped to
the point where there will be no PPC ISOs any more?
